Well up to now most of my mods have been glue on, stick on, snap on, light drilling and the exhaust. However this is my first venture into breaching the firewall. I had to remove the cowl (that crappy plastic thing under the wipers) to get on the inside of it. Not too tough. Got the horns mounted after much debate with the Mrs. and surrendering to her good judgement they fit very well. (there aint much space left under the hood)
It goes without saying that these horns play a Gabriel inspired rendition of "The eyes of Texas".
Also found the back side of the power steering resovoir bracket perfect for locating the compressor.
Now the big question.
Is there a prefered place to bring wire into the cab from the engine bay or should I just pick one and put the unibit to her till it feels big enough.
Also how in the #3// do you get the dash apart? I got the left and right knee knockers off but couldn't get beyond that. (well I could have but it probly would not have been pretty). When my wife came out and saw the guts behind the dash she went into a tirade about me being a tipically hard headed guy and made me come in here and get directions. I would like to use one of the switch blanks on the lower center of the dash to mount my switch.
Now to powering the thing.
When looking for power under the hood can I just clamp a wire under the + battery terminal? Where should I look for an "available hot" inside the cab?
Please help quick my wife is not going to leave me alone till this is done!
Did i stump you guys? no reply?
